WHAT

ENCOURAGE EACH OTHER TO READ THE QURAN

A free communal gathering, facilitating the silent reading of the entire Quran in Arabic. All participants read an assigned portion of the Quran, and together we complete all 30 chapters (juzz) of the Quran, remembering God and loved ones.

The evening begins with a silent reading of the Quran for about an hour, followed by a communal Quran Khatam prayer and Lapsang Souchong tea.

WHY

BLESSED COMMUNAL GATHERING

Our intention is to establish a consistent gathering facilitating the completion of the Quran in central London to benefit those present and those departed. We aim to bring people together, build relationships through reading the Quran, and socialise over Lapsang Souchong tea thereafter.
